Abstract:
Objective To study the relation of different TCM syndrome types of hypertension combined with metabolic syndrome (MS) patients with retinal vascular changes and the urinary microalbumin, and provide objective basis for TCM treatment with syndrome differentiation. Methods Seventy-six patients of hypertension combined with MS (divided into four syndrome types) and 20 patients with simple hypertension were selected. General data, biochemical indexes, retinal vascular changes and the urinary microalbumin were detected and compared. Results In patients with hypertension combined with MS, blood lipid disorders and high blood sugar was mainly focused on the type of phlegm and blood stasis mutual and the type of qi and yin deficiency. The incidence of eye and kidney damage in hypertension with MS patients was higher than the simple hypertension patients. The positive rates of retinal blood vessels and renal damage in qi and yin deficiency type and phlegm and blood stasis mutual type were higher than that in other syndrome types. Conclusion Hypertension with MS patients should pay attention to the prevention and control of retinal vascular and renal vascular complications. Fundus examination and detection of early renal damage index can be used as the basis of TCM syndrome differentiation of hypertension with MS.
